i have 1987 240dl wagon with a M47 5 speed trans. it is silver paint code 177-3. 202,000 miles. engine runs good no smoke.
trans seems fine to me (no slipping or trouble shifting)
2 years ago i clipped a deer at about 30 mph so headlights and grill were replaced, drivers side headlight was new passenger side was very near new cuz insurance wouldn't cover something bla bla bla. so pass side is a little off color from the other.
the hood was dented. fixed and freshly painted they did a nice job. kinda funny cuz the car was so old. front fenders are solid. doors are ok. blue vinyl interior. and to pass inspection last may i put a new exhaust on it (less than 2,000 mles ago)
some guy backed into me in home depot parking lot last year and was perterbed at the fact he scratched his new f-150 on my "piece of crap" I laughed cuz it didn't bother me too much. rather have this car hit that my wife's audi right?
NOW for the problem.....most of you will be shocked to find out the bottom is rusted out. PERIOD! way too much to fix. the motor mounts are shot. the rear axle mount is shot cuz the mounting is rusted out. I'm not hiding anything here it is what it is.
if anyone is truly interested it is inspected until may. and i wouldn't hesitate to drive it home from my place (Allentown PA area) to almost anywhere. email me or post with your email i will take photo's etc and send them to you.
Ps. the clock works too.... LOL
